Udaipur, Apr 6: A 38-year-old businessman died and his brother-in-law sustained severe injuries after their luxury SUV crashed into the Fatah Sagar lake in Rajasthan’s Udaipur on Wednesday, police said on Thursday.

bmwThe mishap occurred on Wednesday night when Vikas Modi and Sarveshwar Maheshwari were heading towards Rani Road surrounding the Fatah Sagar. As they reached Rajiv Gandhi Park, Modi lost control over his BMW (X3) and hit the cemented railing of the lake and the vehicle slipped into it.

People present at the scene rushed to help them but the SUV went deep into the water. Maheshwari managed to break one of the windows and come out of the vehicle. He later fainted and was rushed to a hospital. He is said to be in a critical condition.

Senior police officials, including superintendent of police Rajendra Prasad Goyal, reached the spot to take a stock of the situation. The car was pulled out of the lake with a help of a hydraulic crane.

The body of Modi, a resident of Navratan Complex area of Udaipur, was shifted to a mortuary. He owned Raj Plastochem, a unit that deals in trade of plastic minerals.

Police said Modi was allegedly drunk at the time of mishap but his family members claimed that he was a teetotaller.

Modi had returned from Singapore on Tuesday.

Mumbai, Feb 11: A 65-year-old woman was allegedly killed by her husband over debt and illness in suburban Powai here, police said on Tuesday.

The incident came to light when Sheela Ajit Lad was found dead by her neighbours at Sukh Shanti Co-operative Society at around 9.30 pm on Monday, an official said.

The victim was allegedly killed by her husband Ajit Lad, who hit her on the head with a heavy object, slit her wrists and strangled her to death, he said.

The accused absconded at around 7.30 pm, leaving a note at the crime scene, saying he was going to commit suicide and had killed his wife because he was heavily in debt and she was suffering from an ailment, the official said.

The childless couple lived alone in the apartment, he added.

"On the basis of the note, we have registered a case of murder against Ajit Lad and have launched a manhunt for him. We have not traced him or found his body as he had mentioned suicide in the note," deputy commissioner of police (DCP) Zone X Ankit Goyal said.
